"Tonight on MSNBC's "The Situation with Tucker Carlson," former judge and Supreme Court nominee Robert Bork tells Tucker Carlson the Harriet Miers' nomination is "a disaster on every level," that Miers has "no experience with constitutional law whatever" and that the nomination is a "slap in the face" to conservatives."

Amen. I want to here some of the thought leaders of this forum rationalize the Miers nomination. We've heard:

* Trust Bush.
* Miers is a Christian.
* Fill in other here please.


Miers is a disaster. The nomination is a slap in the face to the middle judiciary with the courage to stand up against liberals. What message does this send the middle?


The nomination is not forward looking. Miers should be a leader and mentor to the future. She only a political crony with a mediocre legal record and relativist positions on a City Council. She didn't even have the courage to make bold stands or create change on a city council. Why put her on a Supreme Court?

Did you post that with a straight face?

She voted for single member districts, rather than the at-large districts that were prevalant in Dallas prior to 1991.

Do you not think that geographical areas of a large city deserve a designated representative on the council?
